Mayo Resort

Mayo Resort is a hidden gem: beach-front pristine nature in a tranquil tropical garden setting away from the beaten track. Authentic fishing villages, frequent beachside rituals, long walks along uncrowded scenic beaches with fine volcanic sand right at its doorsteps. Majestic sunsets most evenings. Its Bora Bora restaurant offers a variety of delicious, healthy foods and drinks at very reasonable prices. The staff is out-of-this world with their ever smiling, immaculate service and respect. All-in-all, a most memorable experience to someday bring my entire family back to. Highly recommended!!

A beautiful little boutique resort located on the beachfront, with only nine rooms. What a find. It is a lovely oasis of peace located just out of Lovina. The resort has a calm, easy-going, relaxed vibe. There are plenty of sun-loungers to stretch out on, lovely tropical grounds and a glorious pool. The rooms are luxuriously appointed, and the Bora Bora restaurant has high-quality, healthy food, a fabulous Western and local menu and a full bar. You will be delighted to know the food prices are local. Nothing is over USD 13. The highlight is the sunrise dolphin experience, and you can take a boat (local prices) straight from the front of the hotel. You avoid the many boat operators, which operate from the main town of Lovina, some 20 minutes away. You have this beautiful stretch of water to yourself. There are many local secret little finds - ask the front desk. The most memorable discovery was the local Buddhist temple. Just 15 minutes away with a mini Borobudur, peaceful meditation halls and golden Buddha statues dotted throughout the spacious grounds. It’s a stunning oasis of nature, peace and beauty. Nearby are the hot springs, and there are also waterfalls to visit. A full massage service is available - choose your massage spot - on the grassy lawn, the beach, or in the privacy of your room. The Mayo is famous for its sunsets. Take a long walk, let the black volcanic sand massage your feet, and soak in all those therapeutic minerals. This resort is incredible value for money, and the warm, personal staff and excellent service make the Mayo feel like home. Truly marvellous.

We booked for a deluxe room and family room.. upon arrival, we being told that our rooms are being upgraded to Villa Putih.. We enjoyed our stay, the food at Bora Bora Restaurant were amazing; the margarita pizza was awesome, and breakfast was super great.. The beach was beautiful, we enjoy our dolphin watching at Lovina the next morning.. Great stay, great fun, great food..

We stayed three nights in an ocean studio with our two children (8 and 13). The small hotel is very nice, away from the hustle and bustle, right on the beach. The rooms offer great views of the pretty pool and the sea. It's wonderfully quiet here and the restaurant offers delicious food. We went on a dolphin-watching tour from the hotel and can warmly recommend it. We had been picked up from a small fishing boat at 6am in front of the hotel and were able to spot a number of dolphins at sunrise! An unforgettable experience! It is also very worthwhile to borrow snorkeling equipment from reception (free, but not in top condition) and thus admire the reef with its many colored fish, starfish, sea urchins and corals directly from the beach! The only downsize is that the beach is very dirty, full of waste and plastic. Nevertheless, we can recommend all tourists to spend a few quiet days at the Mayo Resort!

A beautiful beach villa right on the black lava beach! We loved it, and do not want to leave! So relaxed, so quiet and such smiling and helpful staff. Wonderful beds and pillows, a stunning view over the rice fields behind the house and an amazing view and sunset over the pool and the Bali Sea! The sea is clean, but there is some rubbish on the beach. I meant some that snorkled right in front of the house and they had seen small fish, however very little corals. In the evening fisher boats are on the sea just outside the beach villa, and in daytime a couple of fishermen stand in the water and fish. The restaurant had everyday sold out of a couple of things on the menu, but then they managed to supply after a couple of days. All in all a splendid and authentic holiday spot if you are looking for a quiet spot off the beaten track.

Stay here for 4 nights. We choose Villa Putih with 2 bedroom and private pool. It's really awesome. They have completed kitchen set up, large living & dining room. They make up our villa every morning after they sent the breakfast. It would be easy for you to rent a scooter to go to every places that you want. The con: The road to the villa is narrow with dim light at night. Microwave was on service for two days but at least we still can used it for another two days.

We had such a pleasant and enjoyable stay at the Mayo Resort in North Bali. The management and staff are gracious people who are running an excellent operation. The grounds of the resort are literally on the water, with beach access and sweeping views of the ocean, and on a clear day you can see the tip of the island of Java (which looks a lot like the island of Bora Bora, the restaurant on site). The Mayo Resort staff are all very friendly and professional and made us feel comfortable, like family. The food at Bora Bora is also great, definitely the best restaurant in the area serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We plan on coming back again to North Bali and staying again at the Mayo Resort. Aloha and mahalo 🙏🏼
